My sister gave my daughter a gift card for Pete Miller’s and she said it was the best gift she’s EVER gotten!

But that’s off topic so to stay on topic - Evanston Place is a great building, across the street from campus and Whole Foods, large rooms, storage and laundry on each floor, outdoor pool (heated so it does get some use), full gym, free coffee and package receiving. It’s a bit far from Jewel Supermarket though so she rides her bike there and uses the saddlebags for the groceries. Evanston Place is one of the more expensive places, my daughter lived in a less expensive and not quite as nice building last year which was further from campus but closer to Jewel Supermarket which was a plus. Oh and given their recent snow, daughter said kids who lived in houses were grumbling about having to shovel their sidewalk, something she was very happy to not have to do!
